M-26–Silver River Culvert
The M-26–Silver River Culvert is a highway bridge located on M-26 over the Silver River in Eagle Harbor Township, Michigan. The Keweenaw County Road Commission built the bridge in 1930; they also built the US 41–Fanny Hooe Creek Bridge and the M-26–Cedar Creek Culvert around the same time. The M-26–Silver River Culvert was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.
The Michigan Department of Transportation will remove the structure starting in late April 2023 and replace it with a modern concrete beam bridge in a project expected to take 10 weeks and cost $2.9 million.
